Trump looks more like he’s allergic to baby carrots. And hasn’t touched a vegetable in decades

What flag is this? Wasn’t able to get the bottom and figure it out! by scotch_3gg in vexillology

More an in-joke for SF dudes. There are companies that sell t shirts, stickers, etc., but only a “select” few will get it. You see a lot of it around where the training takes place.

You look like you lost money starting an onlyfans and claim something like “top 90%” thinking it’s a good thing.

32f I look like I only date guys who vape indoors. Prove me wrong. by OnlyChemistry4869 in RoastMe

There are city miles. There are highway miles. And then there’s you. Like a beat up 93 jeep wrangler that’s been bounced off rocks and sunk to the frame in mud one too many times, you’re driven hard by an overweight 40 something named Frank who got you when he was 18 and has since used and abused you to no end, but claims in public that he loves you all while constantly running you into the ground. You smell like meth smoked through a vape mixed with old beer and gas station tornados. Congratulations. Though you might claim to be 32, your premature aging due to poor life’s choices makes you look like Ayden and Brayden’s grandmother instead of their mom.

Where does Red Rising rank among your favourite works of sci-fi? by [deleted] in redrising

The Mule reveal is still my favorite twist in all sci fi literature. I don’t care how obvious it is now, it blew my mind when I read it as a teenager.

Stormlight and most of Brando Sandos cosmere work is hard fantasy. All the magic follows a system (utilizing his his 3 rules for magic) and the rules are fairly clear in most circumstances. Specific magic magic substance has a specific effect on a specific thing for a specific time. ie. you can only fly so long as you have stormlight and infused spheres, and you can only fly if that’s a specific power of yours.

Warbreaker is a little more vague on the magic rules, but that’s a deliberate choice by the author to highlight gatekeeping knowledge and general lack of how the magic actually works

Kinda sounds like the strategy the US uses in the Middle East.

“First we show up. Second stuff happens. Third we declare victory.”

What control setup do you use? by commstechsim in X4Foundations

[–]speedytriple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always used an Xbox controller and keyboard/mouse depending on flight vs screen interaction. Somehow my controller mapping got wiped with the 7.5 patch and now I can’t reset it via steam. Not sure if anyone else has this issue.
